2. Insulator (electricity) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insulator_(electricity)

   Guy wires supporting antenna masts usually have strain insulators inserted in the cable run, to keep the high voltages on the antenna from short circuiting to ground or creating a shock hazard. Often guy cables have several insulators, placed to break up the cable into lengths that prevent unwanted electrical resonances in the guy.

3. Earthing system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earthing_system

   The "local" Earth/Ground electrode provides "system grounding" [13] at each building where it is installed. The "Grounded" current carrying conductor is the system "neutral". Australian and New Zealand standards use a modified protective multiple earthing (PME [ 14 ] ) system called multiple earthed neutral (MEN).

4. Bushing (electrical) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bushing_(electrical)

   In electric power, a bushing is a hollow electrical insulator that allows an electrical conductor to pass safely through a conducting barrier such as the case of a transformer or circuit breaker without making electrical contact with it. Bushings are typically made from porcelain, though other insulating materials are also used.

5. Ground (electricity) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_(electricity)

   A ground fault protection relay must trip the breaker to protect the circuit before overheating of the resistor occurs. High-resistance grounding (HRG) systems use an NGR to limit the fault current to 25 A or less. They have a continuous rating, and are designed to operate with a single-ground fault.

6. Ground loop (electricity) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_loop_(electricity)

   The ground loop still exists, but the two sides of the loop are close together, so stray magnetic fields induce equal currents in both sides, which cancel out. Break in the shield Create a break in the signal cable shield conductor. [5] The break should be at the load end. This is often called ground lifting. It is the simplest solution; it ...

7. Busbar - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Busbar

   The busbar's material composition and cross-sectional size determine the maximum current it can safely carry. Busbars can have a cross-sectional area of as little as 10 square millimetres (0.016 sq in), but electrical substations may use metal tubes 50 millimetres (2.0 in) in diameter or more as busbars.
